It's no coincidence that all four teams in NBA conference finals are among top 5 in made 3-pointers

There is still mystery surrounding how the Detroit Pistons' off-season will unfold.

But there is one certainty: The team will seek shooting.

And it doesn't matter if it comes from the June 25 draft, where the Pistons have the No. 8 overall pick, or in the summer free-agency period.

The old saying about dying with the jump shot isn't true as the four teams remaining in the NBA playoffs are among the top five in the league when it comes to made three-pointers.

And it's more than just the points created. For the Pistons, it maximizes the talents of center Andre Drummond and point guard Reggie Jackson.

"I think you see the value of shooting — both in the actual points the shot creates, but also in the way it impacts the floor with the inside potential that we have and with the driving ability we showed last year," Pistons general manager Jeff Bower said.

"What makes both of those factors even more effective is having the floor spread out and defenses having to be wider, which would allow lanes to be open. Shooting is a big deal. Shooting is changing the way the game's played and those are all skills that we value very highly."
